To hate my partners family?

My partner has a horrible selfish family.
She had a rubbish childhood -I won't get into it but the stories she told me is awful.
She has no contact anymore with her mum and her dad rings her once in a blue moon.
She practically raised her younger brother.
Her dad has 2 sons with his now ex wife and my partner was a mother figure to him.
Anyway her dad (if you call him that ) told her that her brother was getting married (the one she practically raised ) he told her that he rang her so she didn't have to see it on Facebook.
She asked could she go and her dad said probably I will speak with him.
(Now my partner had spoken with her brother a few weeks before and never mentioned this wedding )
Her dad said he would ring her back -he didn't.
She tried to ring and message him a week later and he had blocked her (her own dad )
Today she noticed she was unblocked (yesterday was the wedding )
She rang him asking how the wedding was -he replied awful I only went as it's my son.
Liar
He's a massive snake her dad ,he is saying all of this so he doesn't look like the bad guy.
When he rang her to tell her about the wedding he said il give you some birthday money.
On the phone he didn't mention her birthday
Aibu to hate the lot of them?

YABU- I have some dreadful family members. They are for me to hate or forgive. Not my partner. I expect his support not his mutual hatred.

She has my support but I hate seeing her cry because of how they treat her.
Nobody should have their dad block them.
Then had the brass neck top pretend his phone was broken.
She just wants to be loved
She used to get birthday presents and two days later (when she was a kid ) they would end up in cash generator so the mum could buy cigarettes
She deserves so much better than this lot

She's looking for it in the wrong place. I will never have acceptance or approval from certain close family members. I've had to learn to say fuck it.
She needs to try and accept that they'll never be what she needs them to be.
